Happy New Year 2018! Makin' Bacon for the Black Eyed Peas and Greens

IT'S 5 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND THE ALMOST FULL MOON HAS JUST SET leaving pitch black dark all around. But not to worry,  the smell of bacon drifts softly through the house as others sleep.

Boy does it smell good!  What's more fun to prepare on New Years Day with the bacon than black eyed
peas and wilted greens cooked in warm bacon lard.  Just what we need to stay energized in this bitter, bitter cold!

Will be back with more pics later.  Meanwhile,  Happy, Healthy,  Prosperous 2018!  And thank you for coming by!
